### General
* Initial version, fork from RetroPie EmulationStation 2.10.0rp-dev (master)
* Reorganization and general overhaul of the menu system, hopefully making it more intuitive and easy to understand
* Many quality of life improvements and removal of GUI inconsistencies

* Seamless (almost) launch of games without showing the desktop when starting and returning from RetroArch and other emulators
2020-07-07 19:33:33 +00:00
* Per-game launch command override, so that different cores or emulators can be used on a per-game basis (saved to gamelist.xml)
* Core location can be defined relative to the emulator binary using the %EMUPATH% varible in es_systems.cfg (mostly useful for Windows)
2020-06-14 10:55:31 +00:00
* Help system updated and expanded to the complete application (previously it was only partially implemented)

2020-06-14 10:55:31 +00:00

* Made pugixml an external dependency instead of bundling it
2020-07-07 19:33:33 +00:00

### Bug fixes
* Metadata editor insisted that changes were made although nothing was updated
2020-07-15 15:44:27 +00:00
Note: The editor will still ask for save confirmations after automatically rounding fractional game ratings to half-star values, but any time such a rounding has taken place, the rating stars will be colored green in the metadata editor to nofity the user
2020-06-14 10:55:31 +00:00
